Just wanted to tell you guys I fixed my folding side mirror problem at autosaver - very pleasant experience and Mr Yap is one very cheerful and happy guy - most of the time smiling and he treats his workers good as well, not screaming or scolding them but talk to them with respect.
Cost was RM 159, took less than 1 hour to fix and I asked him if he used alloy or plastic gear, he said plastic - if use alloy gear not good because the inner part doesn't have some sort of teeth or something, so when you fold the mirror - sometimes it cannot fold properly but more importantly, if you force close the mirror from outside, there's a chance since it is alloy, the outer part of the alloy may break other components inside the side mirror. That's what he said and I think it makes sense to me - so take note for those who want to use alloy one this can be a concern. Curious to know anyone else's thoughts on this and it happen that this is a new discovery on how to fix the side mirror - about 1 year + ago he said nobody knew how to fix this if ask in the forum, so that's why he did promotion last time - RM 99 to fix it. |

Appreciate any help you guys can give.
My 2011 Forte interior lights doesnt come on with Right Hand door (front & rear). Works with Left Hand door & when switched to permanent ON. Been trying to figure out if it's Right Hand door sensor (front & back) or simply the fuse. Cant figure out which fuse to check (see interior fuse panel & fuse box panel).

Bro, wanna know, service in Autosaver is cheaper than service in Naza Kia Service Centre??? Did Autosaver charge you the labor cost? My warranty going to over and plan to service outside but worry the parts are not original from Kia and will impact the engine performance...anyway I have change to SP-IV ATF on Saturday 20180106
